她从厨房收拾到客厅,心里说服自己,这样忙里忙外整理房子只是给自己找点事情做做而已。晚上她睡得像小孩一样熟,因为白天她扮家家酒似,快乐的忙了一整天,她一生从来不曾这样快乐过。她每一小时都生活得很充实。
There was only a day now before Bess would arrive. Passing her gleaming mirrors, at first with vague awareness, then with painful clarity, Lottie saw herself as others saw her, and could not stand the sight. She went on a spending spree from the specialty shops to the beauty salon, emerging transformed into a woman who believed in miracles.
还有一天碧丝就要到家了。珞蒂走过一面擦亮的镜子,起先隐隐约约的,后来清清楚楚痛苦无比地,她看见别人眼中的自己,实在无法忍受自己的模样。她突然花钱如流水地从一间一间专卖店到美容院,摇身一变,成了一名相信奇蹟的女人。
She was in the kitchen basting a turkey when Bess rang the bell. Her heart raced, and she wondered if the heat from the oven was responsible.
她在厨房给正在烤炙中的火鸡上奶油时,碧丝按了门铃。她的心狂跳起来,她怀疑是烤箱的热度影响了心跳。
She went to the door, and Bess stood before her. Stiffly she suffered Bess's embrace, her heart racing harder, her eyes suddenly smarting from the onrush of cold air.
她走到门口,碧丝站在她前面。她僵硬地接受了碧丝的拥抱,她的心跳得更快了,她的眼睛因为冷气的冲突忽然刺痛起来。
